having bcrypt in the browserid process means a lot of compute heavy jobs are enqueued on the same queues as other work, like file interaction (i.e. logging!).

What would the impact be of moving bcrypt out of process using `node-compute-cluster` and using the sync interfaces instead? would performance improve? would it become possible to manage max backlog at the application level?
